    As the spreadsheet point sheet actually starts with Monday through Sunday, I thought the actual challenge started the 5th

    3/8 water no, walk no
    4/8 water no, walk yes

    Not sure which column I'm meant to put this in considering the Sat and Sun are at the end of the week?
  • Water completed!
    Didn't walk for 30 minutes but I did do 30 minutes of Kettle Bell exercises..swinging balls...lol

    Done with water for the day! No walk today, hopefully again tomorrow. Also wondering about the spreadsheet, and how to record if I did only one of the two. ^_^

    Walk: yep

    How do we log it on the spread sheet when it's our day off from walking?

    Does it still count if I combine some of the walks? So do 1hr for one of the days? Just that there aren't enough days this week lol!
